Railway Crossings Bill Promotes Federal Funding Plan
Hon Geo Graham explains a measure to fund railway level crossing protection. The bill would allocate 80 per cent of costs from a federal fund and create a Railway Crossings Fund under the Railway Board. It expands powers of the railway commissioners and shifts some burden from municipalities to the federal treasury. Also noted are torpedo tech claims and an Alberta CPR land tax decision.
